How do you replace the timing belt of the Volvo V70?

Model: Volvo V70 MK 3 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Timing belt

The timing belt of the Volvo V70 can be replaced by opening the hood and removing the panel located on the left side of the engine block: it will be necessary to first remove the coolant tank and the power steering oil tank. Now, it will be possible to also remove the front right wheel along with the inner cover of the corresponding wheel arch. By doing this, you will have access to the belt tensioner roller, which once removed will allow you to reduce the tension of the belt itself, removing it from the respective toothed wheels. In this way, it will be possible to insert the new belt and reassemble all the components previously removed.
